If you use your mind to study reality, you won't understand either your mind or reality. If you study reality without using your mind, you'll understand both. . . . The mind and the world are opposites, and vision arises where they meet. When your mind doesn't stir inside, the world doesn't arise outside. When the world and the mind are both transparent, this is true vision. And such understanding is true understanding.

Not creating delusions is enlightenment.

As long as you're enthralled by a lifeless form, you're not free.

I never lost or fail, not yet conquered. If I fall seven times, I get up eight

The mind's capacity is limitless, and its manifestations are inexhaustible. Seeing forms with your eyes, hearing sounds with your ears, smelling odors with your nose, tasting flavors with your tongue, every movement or state is all your mind.

Those who worship don't know, and those who know don't worship.

But deluded people don't realize that their own mind is the Buddha. They keep searching outside.
